    They wont be able to compete with Google if they charge for the same functionality that's already free.

    oxymoron:
    A rhetorical figure in which incongruous or contradictory terms are combined, as in a deafening silence and a mournful optimist.

    e.g.
    "premium basic"

    Just wait until they try and make u pay for surfing the web , not just the ADSL connection....
    See how satellite and cable operate now, with bouquets ?
    Sports, Films etc..?

    Welcome to the Future of the Internet. Lock it down, and make people pay for everything.

    PDFcreator is nice too, works admirably.
    Most of the people I know don't know about it. (on windows anyway). On linux pdf just works out of the box.
